Evening Pause (study)

Evening Pause (study), L. Daniel, 8 x 6

End of day. I love the feeling, smells and light. I love it in real time and I love painting it. :) This small study was done in preparation for a larger canvas I will post later in the spring (in conjunction with a show it will be in). As I have shared before, these small works are a great place for me to work out color relationships and composition challenges of an image before diving into a big one.

Evening Pause is just beautiful. Makes you want to do just that- lots of gorgeous color and lights and darks to reflect on. I LOVE the triptych...oh my! Very powerful to see all together. Incredibly talented piece Laurel:)

I love your triptych. When I was a little girl I always imagined the little fairies living in the forest. Your paintings are what I would see in my mind that the forest looked like. Even down to the colors that you used.
